My Sketchbook 2011

Hello everyone! So- I uploaded my entire Sketchbook Project to flickr today (and also my Camberwell Blog). You'll want to have a look at flickr for the whole story! I thought I would show you some of my favourites, although, it's kind of hard because there are a lot! I had mum holding the book while I took the photos and playing with my new lense! It does amazing things. Anyway, here are some of my favs:For a lot of these pages, I had done the drawings while out and about and then when I sat down this week to fill it up, I added the colours and the collages and it came together really nicely as a fluid book, but still jumping from one thought to another. The theme was on '...you'd be home by now.' which I thought was really relevant to some personal things that happened in 2010. it's kind of an exploration of living by myself and learning to love being alone and dealing with the loneliness when it comes along. But I'll never see this pretty little book again because it's off to America now! Kind of refreshing, actually- to put all those thoughts down and send them off. [:Which are your favourite pages?

p.s. hee hee! one of my friends from college, Alice Tye has done this too! Look at this funny picture she drew of me! pretty sure she drew this from a photo we took in Budapest. I love it when friends draw me.<3
